Added Fade into Antiquity into my side cause you know screw god enchantments.
@Drexos Archangel of Thune is pretty expensive atm and Fiendslayer Paladin would give me mana problems early on so I focused more on Witchstalker . I may add Trostani, Selesnya's Voice . I'm going to avoid planeswalkers for now, but you suggestions are great, thank you.

If you can afford them: Fiendslayer Paladin and Archangel of Thune are great, Path of Bravery is also good in theis deck, mine is similar but i have not updated it on here yet High On Life

I've been working on a similar deck, Selesnya Lifeline, I would say fog is a little redundant due to amount of life our decks gain. I would personally sideboard the Silence for aggro matchups. Giant Growth isn't a bad addition, but with Gift of Orzhova and Unflinching Courage in the deck, it may be too much. I like the Soul Tithe for removal, i personally chose Banisher Priest . Overall good deck though.

I have always loved a good Selesnya Lifelink Deck. Personally I would recommend you invest into Archangel of Thune . Especially since she combos so well with Brindle Boar . Check out my Junk for Life (Post-Rotation) deck to see how to abuse her well. Especially since you are using a lot of the same cards I am.

Ah, nevermind, I forgot Rancor is M13. Well, I'd suggest you get some trample in somehow, :)

+1 from me, I like the idea! I've built a similiar that runs really well against everything I've play tested so far. Give it a look and +1 if you like it or take any ideas from it. Good luck

Selesnya Charm instead of Giant Growth since Rancor is out.

There has to be a better card to fit the slot of Deadly Recluse . I mean it's alright, but there are definitely better creatures like Scavenging Ooze that offer more utility. I would even suggest taking your creature count up to 20.
Giant Growth
and Soul Tithe
don't seem to fit. Removal, utility, and interaction via Selesnya Charm
, more Silence
, and the like would serve you better, IMO.
Also, since you're running Archangel of Thune with a 5 CMC, I'd up the land count to 22-23. Even with Elvish Mystic , the guarantee of a land drop is much needed when running that CMC.

How about Basilica Guards , Soulmender and Syndic of Tithes . All repetitive life-gain cards at low mana cost?

Ethereal Armor for the number of enchantments you want to run?

Erebos, God of the Dead Does not like this deck and decides to shut it down.

@Mello.Mel
Solemn Offering , and if not that there's plenty of other cards that destroy enchantments.

You'd have to exile Erebos, as it's Indestrcucrible...

Both comments are pointless since poster requested post rotation standard. Rhox is m13. U do however need life links like angel of thune or fiend slayer pld. Centaur healer is cheap life gaine. Trostani selesnyas voice would help. Garruk or Ajani.
